WElcome to Ivy Street!
We are in various locations in Hoxton at present, see below for venue addresses.
We welcome anyone looking after pre-school children and have spaces at all our sessions. No need to book, just drop-in.
We look forward to seeing you at our Stay and Play and Music sessions.
Our Drop-in sessions are open to anyone with a pre-school child and you can come more than once a week if you wish. Toys and activities for the children and a hot drink for you!
Please be mindful that some people may still prefer to keep their distance. Masks are advised when moving through the buildings and we ask you to be respectful if someone feels safer keeping a mask on indoors.
We ask for a donation of £1 per session to cover refreshments, please let us know if you prefer to pay for a block by card.

"Lockdown babies was the first chance I had to meet other mums and babies after my baby was born in the first lockdown...I've made friends, as has my baby girl, that have been really important to us, and I hope we'll stay in touch in years to come!"
Hayley, Mum of 4 month old.
“I don’t know what I’d do without Ivy Street, my social life would come to an end!”
Jo, Mum of 2 year old.
"Come sit down and get comfy. What's your name? Would you like a cup of tea?" a friendly face asked. Now this was something that makes Ivy St different from all the other groups I had previously attended."
